    Default Not new posts

    Excuse me if I'm covering old ground as I seem to remember a change with how "New Posts" worked a while back.

    What's a little annoying is when you open a "New Post" and don't think to take note of where it originated from so finding it again is difficult.

    I realise I could subscribe to the thread thus creating a list of subscribed threads and navigate from there but what I would prefer is a fixed list of posts in the order of time they were posted then an option to view only the New Posts within the list.

    Otherwise I can live with the way things are

    Go to the Toolbar up top and click on Quick Links then select Today's Posts, that will show you every post since you've either cleared your cookies or marked Forums as read.

    oh yeah, that's where it is, how come it's not on the same level as New Posts?

    Thanks DJ

    Guess it's a bit crowded up there, is the Menu Bar customisable? I'd put it in place of Members List and Calendar which seem to me better under Quick links.

    A new post isn't a new post once you've read it

    Its not on the same level because it has been left in its default location, which I agree probably isn't the best place to have it. Links like; members list, FAQ and Calendar are much less useful to most users.

    Yeah I get the concept of a New Post...but just because I've read it, if I didn't take note of what thread or forum it belonged to I don't know where it went after reading it

    So now I'll go to Todays Post to find it, no sweat

    Is Todays Post locked in the default location

    Nope, it can be easily moved, but that isn't my decision.
